TULSA, Okla. (AP) — A man who died after being found with a gunshot wound in Tulsa has been identified.

Police say 34-year-old James Mario Parker was found with a gunshot wound Friday at a home in north Tulsa and died later at a Tulsa hospital.

Police later arrested a suspect in the shooting but say the man has not been charged. Police say the man admitted shooting Parker but claims he opened fire in self-defense and that witnesses have corroborated the story by saying Parker had come to the suspect's home armed with a weapon and that both men opened fire.
